Formspring Shuts Down (opens in new tab)

Honestly, this was coming and everyone knew it. Only an illiterate would believe in someone trying to get rich building just forms. Sigh, I wish only one thing - That more people realized that you need to solve problems instead of trying to build the next cool thing! I wish this 14 million was donated to something else that could have impacted our lives - Like a new motor technology or an electric car. I can't imagine anyone rational funding 14 million on a company that had just forms (for consumers) as its business model.

Personally, I stopped using this service the moment it started spamming my inbox with boring questions.

You do remember Instagram was bought for $1 billion having generated exactly 0 revenue, right?

Lots of respect for what these guys have done and accomplished but at the end of the day I have to ask can it pass the Shark Tank test.

Thanks for being honest.
